Hi @malaypatel, This isn't an issue with Kibana. It's an issue with your Elasticsearch cluster. See this thread ([Create mapping error！——primary shard is not active Timeout](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/create-mapping-error-primary-shard-is-not-active-timeout/88174/2?u=chrisronline)) for a utility to get more information on what's going on in your Elasticsearch cluster ---
